her invulnerability buff was season 3.
Almost is still exaggerating? Tf. Maybe you need to work on your reading since you can’t even tell if you’re exaggerating or not.
Winston now makes Mercy’s heals nonexistent. Roles reversed. Also, Titanium explains Mercy’s heals nerf very well in her “The Recent and Previous Developments…”. There’s a bit of light reading for you.
Hello!
You all know why I’m here by this point. This is my 5th thread on this topic, and as you can see, I’m not limited in thread title variations. Great news, though! I got bored of my previous text on top of the fact that I had lots of time to think while on vacation, so I’m writing this entire thing from scratch!
Resurrect Let’s dive straight into this.
Balance! Or… Lack Thereof:
Resurrect is currently the reason Mercy is imbalanced.
How so, you might ask, citing Mercy’s Resurrect stati…
Actually, it’s 6 seasons since she wasn’t overpowered at all with mass Resurrect.
Crepsly:
I notice it when I have to solo heal. Not so much if I have a second healer with me.
But you know, speaking on that … this is kind of off-topic, but I noticed in general my win rate on Mercy is very sub-par, especially in competitive. And I thought it was because I was a bad Mercy. But looking closer…
… It’s because when I pick Mercy, I’m usually desperate. As in “Crap, we have 4 DPS and 1 tank. I have to solo heal so I guess Mercy would be the best bet.” And those games we obviously lose more of since we don’t have team players or a decent comp.
Because if we do have another healer, I’ll usually go Brigitte or Moira. I pick Mercy (usually) only when I’m forced to solo heal, because she’s just the best at it. (Or was.)
So yeah, no real change for me here other than my win rate on her will drop even further, OR I’ll start picking Moira in those situations instead … and my win rate will drop on her instead.
Sad really. Her heals are getting iterated because of a rework no one asked for ;-;
